I'm doing some practice on the Westward Journey

Chapter 15 I'll try【Seeking further reading】

When Lu Fei arrived at the assembly point, he stood beside the group of little monsters and looked at the approaching crow monster and little pig monster with their red skins hooked up and whispering, he couldn't help but ask, "What are you two talking about?"

The crow monster was startled, looked up and found the place, looked at Lu Fei's gaze, and said with a embarrassed face: "It's nothing, the bear leader is going to talk, let's stop talking, we can't make the mistake of last time"

Hearing the crow's weird words, Lu Fei was taken aback. If it wasn't for this guy's unnatural expression, he would have thought he had heard it wrong.

That kind of unnatural, dodging eyes, like being caught saying bad things behind someone's back.

Lu Fei looked suspiciously at the crow monster a few more times, but in the end he didn't ask, because the leader of the bear demon bear in front of the team spoke.

"Three days have passed."

With red eyes and a height of more than two meters, the burly bear demon stared at the little demons under him with violent eyes and said, "Today is the day for the acceptance task, let me see which ones have not completed it."

The voice just fell.

Immediately, a little demon shouted from below: "Boss, we are done, please accept it."

"We have also finished, please check with the leader."

"And us."

All the little demons scrambled to shout.

Seeing the little demons under his command jumping up and down, the leader of the bear gave a ferocious smile on his face with criss-crossed flesh and scars, and said, "Don't worry, come one by one, no one can escape."

Soon, the first one to be accepted was the task of making fifty gun barrels, which was completed by three little demons.

After watching the three little monsters run away quickly, three bundles of guns carried from nowhere were placed in front of the bear leader.

The crow monster standing behind the group of monsters looked worried and stretched out his hand to quietly poke Lu Fei in front of him, and said in a very low voice: "Bai Mao, we have too many arrows and we can't take them all at once."

Glancing at the crow monster's face behind him, Lu Fei comforted, "It's okay, don't talk for a while, let me tell you."

Hear what Lu Fei said.

The worries on the red-skinned faces of the crow monster and pig demon behind them eased significantly.

"First, Second, Third, Fourth"

The bear leader stood aside, and a big gray-haired mouse with a mouse's head and a human body was counting the barrels of guns.

For a group of monsters who don't know what reading is, being able to read and count is definitely a popular skill, whether it is in Langlang Mountain or other mountain monster groups, it can basically be reused.

However, in the process of the continuous improvement of the strength of the monsters.

As long as they live long enough and have enough experience, some problems that basically involve simple mathematics will not trouble them.

Just like someone who has never read a book, it is a truth to be able to calculate how much money is spent when shopping.

But at the lower level, especially in the fast-changing monster group, except for some smart monsters who are born with numbers, or have lived longer and have more experience, there are basically no other numbers-aware monsters.

Apparently, the gray-haired mouse spirit counting guns was one of the two kinds of monsters.

"No.40 seven, No.40 eight, root."

The gray-haired mouse counted to the end, looked at the extra gun barrel, then looked at the bear leader beside him and said, "Report to the leader, there are fifty gun barrels in total, and there is one more."

At this time, the leader of the bear was attracted by the leader of the white wolf in a black robe appearing on the top of the mountain.

At this time, hearing the report from the gray-haired mouse spirit, he turned his head, glanced at the pile of gun barrels on the ground with uneven lengths, then looked at the mouse spirit and said, "You didn't make a mistake, did you?"

Mouse Spirit: "Report to the leader, no."

The leader of the bear looked at the three little monsters with nervous eyes and said, "Your task is completed."

"Next."

As he spoke, the bear demon pointed to the mouse spirit and said, "Grey skin, keep counting"

"Yes, chief."

Hearing the order from the bear leader, the mouse spirit looked at all the monsters around with a proud face, then raised his head and walked up to several bows and arrows, and began to count: "the first, the second, the third"

Looking at the mouse spirit who is showing off among the group of monsters.

The crow saw it, and said with envy, "Since when did this gray-skinned guy have such a good relationship with the leader?"

"Also let him take on the important task of counting, he is not as good at counting as I am"

Hearing the envious and sour words of the crow monster behind him, Lu Fei said, "Didn't you say you can't count?"

The crow monster immediately retorted: "Of course I can count."

Lu Fei: "Then I asked you to count the arrows for me last time, how can you not?"

A trace of embarrassment and shame immediately appeared on the crow monster's face, but he had too many feathers to tell, so he quibbled: "I tend to get nervous when counting, and when I get nervous, I will make mistakes."

Just saying that.

The crow monster suddenly remembered that Lu Fei counted [-] arrows very easily in the bamboo forest before, that was [-] arrows!

At this time, the crow monster, who realized his partner's talent in counting, began to become excited at the speed he saw, and was about to ask a question. When he looked up, he saw his partner's handsome white wolf head and a pair of eyes that seemed to last forever. Indifferent yellow eyes stared at him.

The excited mood calmed down instantly.

As if guessing what the crow wanted to say, Lu Fei said, "Counting is born, so speak softly."

The crow monster didn't care about Lu Fei's pre-judgment of his problem at this time, but suppressed his voice and said excitedly: "Bai Mao, I think you can tell the bear leader that your counting ability is better than that gray-skinned guy. He asked you to count"

"Oh"

Lu Fei, who just watched the whole process of counting the mouse spirit, of course knows that the gray-skinned mouse spirit has limited abilities.

Fifty gun barrels can count 51 half buckets of water, no, not as good as half a bucket of water.

Kindergarten children can count numbers from one to one hundred.

But there were no other monsters to expose him, so Lu Fei opened his mouth lazily.

It's just that due to the limited knowledge of the original owner, Lu Fei didn't know the importance of being able to count among the monsters.

At this time, I heard the crow monster talking about it, so I asked, "Is there any benefit?"

Hearing that Lu Fei was interested, the crow monster immediately excitedly said: "The benefit. The benefit is huge. You know, our bear leader can't count."

Speaking of which, the crow monster's voice was exceptionally low.

"If Baimao, you go to count for the leader, then our future tasks will be much simpler, and the leader will not entrust you with difficult tasks, so that you will not have to patrol the hot Tianman Mountain every day in the future. Run all over the mountain."

"Also, with Bai Mao's ability, if you count it well, you may be valued by the commanders, and you may be valued by the king."

"Anyway, as long as you can count for the leader, you will be much safer on the mountain, and most importantly, you can take care of the two of us."

The crow monster said and pulled the little pig demon red skin beside him.

Red Skin immediately nodded as if pecking at rice.

Facing the eyes of the two partners looking forward to it.

Lu Fei was silent for a while and then nodded: "I'll try."
